Common Questions Answered
What Is Sleep Apnea?
Sleep Apnea is a common sleep disorder characterized by repeated interruptions in breathing during sleep. These interruptions can lead to daytime fatigue, increased risk of cardiovascular disease, and other health issues.
How Is Sleep Apnea Diagnosed?
Diagnosis typically involves a sleep study, known as polysomnography, which can be conducted in a sleep lab or at home. This study monitors various body functions during sleep to identify apnea episodes and other sleep abnormalities.
What Treatments Are Available for Sleep Apnea?
Treatment options range from lifestyle changes and CPAP (Continuous Positive Airway Pressure) therapy to oral appliances and, in some cases, surgery. The best treatment plan is personalized based on the severity of your condition and your specific health needs.
Can Lifestyle Changes Help with Sleep Apnea?
Yes, lifestyle changes such as losing weight, quitting smoking, and adjusting sleep positions can significantly improve symptoms for many patients. Our team provides guidance on effective strategies tailored to your lifestyle.
